Ah I see, I think you are correct about that. I've got a special tweezers that measure capacity, but think I read you can't measure smds without desoldering it, otherwise you measure the whole circuit? Don't know if that is true. Good idea about checking the other SMDs. I can see the...

Maybe a long shot, but I'm hoping there are some (ex) SiS people on here who wouldn't mind helping me out. I've got a battered and bruised SiS Xabre 600 pre-production card (XABT05A1) pictured below. Since it's a rare card I would really like to get this up and running. It's got 4 smds...

Hi, my two Warp 5 boards (two different bios revs iirc) have been passed on to someone who will continue keeping these things alive. If you need any more info I can ask him if you want. I doubt he will want to part with them though. :) (Thanks for letting me know Davros)

Carsten, as for your question about the Avalanche3D board, I have the answer right here, don't think he would mind me sharing his words. So there you have it. :???: Also, digging through my emails to back up my statement above : Going to build an acrylic wall display for them.

Interesting that's what I thought as well, will check again when I'm there next.

I've got a long forgotten patch for Fatal Racing for the Game Glint (Creative Blaster VLB). That's something I still need to pursue.

Good and bad news, the driver did recognize the card and went to install but came up with a Midas Windows 95 Installation Disk not found error. It couldn't find PVRHAL32.DLL, PVRTHK16.DLL, PVRWIN32.dll and quite a few more. It seems this driver is to enable D3D for the card. Three files...

Davros, I owe you one mate, that has to be it. Will have a look later today!

Hey Carsten. :) It might be sacrilege for some but I have never actually tried to. When I first received the card I did drop the driver word, it's been some time ago, but I remember never getting a direct answer. I should really get in contact again and get this going. Anyway, don't mean to...

Wow, this is great, I just got my Midas 3 Compaq board out. Really wanted to do some testing on this one after having been in storage for ages. Frantically looking just about anywhere for a driver, but can't find any. Stumbled on this topic by chance. Simon, Rys, can you help me out here? Board...

Thanks. It's all backed up, no problems there.

Thanks mate, I appreciate the kind words. Excellent, I'll have a look. Always enjoy reading the projects there. Always have, always will.

Sorry guys, I haven't been on here for ages. Really sorry again, life has gotten on top of me recently. The renewal for the site came up and went past in breeze. Not really, have been doing it now for years, website has been in progress for I dunno 2,5 years or so? Some clarification. I intend...

I know it's kind of against the rules, but If anyone is still interested, my 3DO Blaster is on eBay. I won't post the link on here, but you know how to find it. Due to space and time constraints, I had do downsize my collection a little to only the high end videocards, so the 3DO Blaster is...

:) It's actually half off, that's one of the problems of the card. I don't think that's going to revive it, but will have to resolder it before I'm going to test it.
